Form & Verdict
Two Class 6 wins over 1m this year; only second in her hat-trick bid here (7f) last month and when filling the same position at Newcastle two weeks ago it came in a race where the winner was able to set a slow pace; still improving and she rates a major player.

Gained all four wins on Tapeta, the last three over 1m this year; well down the field when back on turf last month, though, and this drop back to 7f may not be ideal.

Best form on AW and she's 0-7 on turf; exposed filly but she landed her fourth AW handicap when scoring at Southwell (1m) in March and was back in that career-best form when second over that C&D a fortnight ago; chance if she can transfer those efforts to grass.

Yet to win a race but last season's three handicap runs were all encouraging; this is the least-competitive race she has tackled and switching to AW shouldn't faze her on pedigree; Billy Loughnane booked; should go well back from a break.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: David Menuisier

Lightly raced; her 1m form on turf and the AW suggests she should find a race off her current mark but she just plugged on at one pace when a remote fourth of six on the step up to 1m2f at Doncaster (good to firm) recently; this may be easier but she needs to prove her stamina.

Still to register a victory but she's proving a reliable filly and returned from eight months off with a clear second of five in 1m Southwell handicap last month; can race off the same mark here and this step up in trip promises to suit so she's a player.

Three wins, including C&D, since joining James Owen last summer; far too strong for her five rivals at Wolverhampton last month (8.6f) but that was only Class 5 and she will need more to follow up in this stronger race off a 6lb higher mark.

Shaped okay at Wolverhampton on her return from 11 months off in December but she failed to back it up at Southwell last month; dropping down the weights and this return to turf could be beneficial.

Clear signs of ability in three starts at Wolverhampton (8.6f/9.5f, Tapeta) and her fourth when last seen in May narrowly sets the standard; interesting that connections are persevering and she's a player on her comeback.
